The West Wing creator Aaron Sorkin has argued for the Democratic Party to nominate a Republican as their presidential candidate in a bid to beat Donald Trump.
In recent weeks, calls for incumbent president Joe Biden to step down have grown ever louder, amid concerns over the president’s health and cognitive abilities.
Current polling suggests that Trump, who was beaten by Biden in 2020 after serving one controversy-laden term in the Oval Office, is on course to win a second term this November.
In an essay published by The New York Times, Sorkin drew parallels between real-world events and his acclaimed TV series, which focused on the goings-on at the White House during the administration of Democrat Jed Bartlet (Martin Sheen).

“What if Bartlet’s opponent had been a dangerous imbecile with an observable psychiatric disorder who related to his supporters on a fourth-grade level and treated the law as something for suckers and poor people?” He wrote. “And was a hero to white supremacists? We’d have had Bartlet drop out of the race and endorse whoever had the best chance of beating the guy.

The Democrats would never do this. And voters are not eager to go for Romney.
My guess is that this is a major con in order to prolong the delay and put in Moochelle (who will claim to be surprised and reluctant to accept the nod, but okay) and without any of that bothersome democracy thingie from the Dem voters .
I do hope my guesses are wrong, btw.
That would be convenient, all the attack ads are already produced and waiting to be played in a loop.
I think if their attempt to take out Trump and remove Biden simultaneously had succeeded, they may have installed Romney as well as Gavin Newsome for the Dems. This isn’t simply the Dems. RINO establishment has their DNA at the scene of the crimes.
The Democratics can nominate a Republican or Mitt Romney, but they have to choose.
I’ll bet Mitt is drooling at that thought.
Correct.
Mitt for President (of the PTA).
Oh please please please with sugar on top, yes please have Romney run as a Dem it would make the Reagan landslide look like a sack of poo compared to what Trump would do..McCain did better against Obama than Romney did and the freakin economy tanked..no one likes Romney, NO ONE
Do it, Do it, Do it, Do it, Do it, Do it
Romney would lose by 90%.
Well it’s unlikely he would lose by that much. If you run for one of the major parties, you’ll do better than that.
Riot on the inside, riots on the outside. How’s the DemonRAT media going to cover both? What to do, what to do.......
And Charlie Crist for VP!
Perfect choice. Everyone hates him.
and deny a fully capable Kamala? what is he smoking?
That would be awesome. Romney is hated by the democrats and the republicans. Democrats hate Romney just as much as they hate Trump.
Mittens is the absolute embodiment of a Republican in Name Only. Democrats would be more honest if they nominated a communist independent like Bernie Sanders, but the Deep State knows they can’t control Bernie. The Deep State can control Mittens. Still it would never happen.
Hahahahaha...my exact response as well! (I did go back and make sure it wasn’t the Babylon Bee!)
Romney?
Guys is a eunuch.
